    It took me 2 mins. How descriptive were you on your job? You saw that it wanted 150 characters and not words right?

    And good morning group!

    Certainly not. If the answer is half way correct, I approve them. But as you know, when you grade, you do a palatalization check. And some of the non-sense is just simply copy and past from a website. Some are even copy and paste from the directions. That's just plain laziness. I'm not saying you either, but whomever is doing this. If they would have read enough blogs before they started turking, they would know that Crowdflower blocks for plagiarism. If their that lazy, they simply deserve it.

    I wrote 155 words and it took me 6+ minutes for the writing plus the answering of the questions.

    You must have answered/wrote nonstop for 2 minutes straight with a 100+ wpm if you finished everything in 2 minutes.

    I fully agree with that, I tendo to do product q's for CS since I like those. BUt after having been graded ridiculously by a few though not rejected im kind of over them. dont tell me there is more I can tell a customer about the requirments for a camera and its specific battery needs when i tell them the make model that its sent with the camera and a rplacement can be ordered if needed, and that it is a rechargable battery. if the damn thing ONLY takes a manufactures battery and not a AAA or similar dont tell me there is more i can tell the customer. thats just dumb. especially when i alwasy give almost TOO much dtail for that damn 10c. blech, ill stick to my quick batches haha

    EDIT sorry for typos kiddo on lap haha

    lol it happens. I meant to say characters includes each letter.
    At my last job I had to submit a grant and the thing kept halting me because of character limit, and my manager kept telling me it was wrong because she had the required amount of words and I told her it said characters not words but she insisted I call the people to figure out what was going on
    of course they told me that it said character limit not word limit and that's why the thing kept halting me, then she suddenly understood
    ...Just using this story to illustrate that you're not alone :p

    Not much of a difference than Ohio really. Just moved across the river, lol. I can move 30 minutes in any direction and live in a different state.
